Top of pageBottom of page   By glencro (152.163.253.70) on Wednesday, March 17, 2004 - 04:39 am:

After taking time out to raise familes and pursue solo
careers, sisters Debbie, Joni, Kathy and Kim Sledge
have again teamed up to produce a brand new CD. A
mixture of old and new songs in a range of genres,
"STYLE" showcases the sisters extraordinary
versatility both as solo artists and as a musical
group. Best known for their mega hits "We Are Family"
and "He's The Greatest Dancer", the listeners will see
that the ladies have matured personally and
professionally. With its unique blend of jazz, rhythm
& blues, gospel, rap and romance, the new release
defies categorization and takes Sister Sledge in new
musical directions. Check out the music on
www.sistersledge.com. I recently purchased the cd from the site and there is some good stuff on here. I can really hear it on WGPR, Smooth Jazz or 92.3

Is Kathy singing with them again??????
She was THE voice for Sister Sledge and without her (when she went solo) it just wasn't the same anymore...

The cd features all four sisters. Kathy isn't doing as much leading as she did in the past but she sings the hell out of the jazz classic "When I Fall In love". I love her soulful rhaspy voice.

Thanks glencro... I just love Kathy's voice... it's funny that it was already her trademark when she was very young. It always had that grain in it, that made you think she was much older than she actually was...

Thanks for the latest on Sister Sledge. I'm glad to see that Kathy is back and the original quartet have come out with something new.

Last time I heard from Kathy it was in 1992 - she recorded "Take Me Back To Love Again" (which was remixed for the dance floor by Roger Sanchez) and a full length CD for Epic Records.

Wow, I didn't know...good to see Sister Sledge back together again. The sound bites sound very nice...a lot different from their older material but that's what growth is about. I just ordered my copy.
